Black night
I am in your eye
What surface had I stood on?
What lake has just thawed?

Black night
You've spread me wide
I want to mingle among
And I want to sing
Be gone
Oh, I won't start singing
Until this place is empty

Black night
I am in your eye
Black night
Take me, try

Where'd my life go?
How'd I live my life?
Where did all my songs go?
Why'd I think they're mine?
So when I see headlights
On the ridge over the hill
Tears tear my eyes
Black night
I am your eye
Show me why
